External approvals
This page contains information to help our contractors and consultants obtain external approvals for engineering infrastructure capital projects, including developer funded works.
The External Approvals Manual assists our staff, consulting engineers and authorised contractors to comply with relevant legislation and statutory requirements.
The manual details our policy for notification of works proposals and approvals from other authorities and decision making organisations and should be used as a checklist and reference from planning through to handover.
The External Approvals Manual can be accessed via our online procurement system, eProcurement.
If you already have an eProcurement login but cannot view the External Approvals Manual, please email engineering.standardsenquiries@watercorporation.com.au and request access.
Please contact the External Approvals Section on Juliet.Cole@watercorporation.com.au if you have any questions regarding the manual.
